Sunday Reflection (October 9, 2022)

God does not require you to do tasks beyond your capabilities, and we may think we are doing our best when we are not. Nevertheless, God requires that we do our best, and if we stumble, get up again and continue. If you are doing well, God does not give up on you. If you try, God does not give up on you. If you fail, God does not give up on you (2 Timothy 2:11-13)!
Jesus, the one who showed us what it is like to be faithful to God and others, offers us forgiveness when we do not meet that standard. God cannot but be faithful to humankind. This is indeed great hope for us, but this is not an excuse for failure; rather, it is an encouragement to continue in the faith even when we fail.
